Heck, we don't even know that. Going by length, the Fury interceptor in Battlefleet Gothic is SM+7 to SM+9. And class size drift is quite real, even insofar as the classes have consistent meanings between navies at all.

And of course in SF, the names can be all over the place. As noted, the B5 Earth Alliance navy considers uses 'destroyer' to refer to a huge primary combatant. But some other B5 navies seem to have destroyers that are fairly small light warships.
